Bulldawg
I have just lost my 20 year old original large Bulldawg and I would like a replacement.But I have not purchased one for years where is the best place to get one ?
I have looked on EBay and they go for about £28 the one I’m looking for is the one with two large trebles on the belly.
Are they still in fashion these days or are you guys using something better ?
Advice please

Do you chop the single off? Good lures - nightmare unhooking if they're inhaled

Re: Bulldawg
Buy from the States most retailers ship quite quickly and prices are OK right now if you don't get hit with import duty... I usually buy a dozen or so every year to replace damaged lures or to top up the collection with some new colours or sizes. Direct from MI at https://musky-innovations.myshopify.com/collections or try The Musky Shop, etc. Some of the latest bull dawgs are super nice. Always a fav of mine on the trout waters, they never go out of fashion with pike

I bought a few lures from the states this year and got hit for import tax, was a bit gutted as the price of the lures was a good, but having to pay that took the shine off it.

Re: Bulldawg
Has anyone had any success with the Suzy Sucker?
I had fancied trying them a few years ago and forgot.
The mention of Franglais reminded me.

How do people rate the Pike Shop Bulldawg copies, 3 for a tenner on Ebay? Got 3 a while back but I`ve only fished them briefly....

Re: Bulldawg
I think the dawg lost its way when they started moulding the tails for me, the cut tail had the better tail and less lift on the troll. I personally prefer the Mag Dawgs because they are cut tails and they do seem to attract the better fish. I even had a take on the pounder a couple of weeks ago and lost the fish on the surface and it looked a good fish, I have it on film but sdaly all you can see is the swirl of her going back down
Perch are scared of wire, dont make me laugh!

Re: Bulldawg
40cm real eels for me or my own home poured curltails, depending on the size of lure I want.
Being unrigged I can weight and rig them however I wish according to my needs.
